x2 Theme Decks + Some cards I found under my bed. Idea Originally from the "I Double theme decks" thread.

Pokemon: 21
4x Krookodile (2 BW, 2 EP)
3x Krokorok(BW)
4x Sandile(BW)
3x Sawk(EP) OR Smeargle
4x Minnccino (EP)
3x Cinccino (BW)

Trainers: 23
3x Great Ball
3x Lost Remover
4x Pokemon Communication
2x Rare Candy
2x Switch
3x Bianca
2x Professor Elm's Training Method
4x Professor Oak's New Theory
1x Twins

Energy: 16
14x Fighting Energy
2x Double Colorless Energy

Sawk is your Preferred starter, being able to deal, (on average) 40/60 damage On Turn 2(Enough to kill basics, which is nice), stalls a bit as you set up your krook and Gigalith lines. Krook BW Uses torment generally to lock the opponent off of the only move they can use at the moment or the strongest one. EP Krook kills energy, and gigalith is a decent muscle, but Minnco is another great option. Trainer line up accelerates the deck, great ball, Training method, twins, and comms help assemble your lines quickly. Energy is basic.

Pretty good for what you found/being made of theme decks. Might I suggest Collector if you can get your hands on it? If not, I would try Pichu HS.
 
Saw 2 Krookodile decks this weekend at Roads. Both went 0-6 :/

Both players claim that with Catcher as popular as it is, Krookodile doesn't stand a chance.

Deck's a little tight; What would you think to take out to add Pichu?

League deck. Even so, the whole point is to have fun, no?
 
Oh, for a League Deck, would be fun I bet, wanted to make a Krookodile deck since I opened my first BW pack and pulled one, fun card, just poor playability for big events.
 
Looks pretty good. You might want to drop the Gigalith line for a thicker Cinccino line, in addition to Pokemon Collector, if you can obtain it. Pichu could work, but be careful about its frailty (and the benefit of letting your opponent set up without any way for this deck to lock Trainers from being played). Gigalith either rips your own deck apart to set up or takes too long to prepare on its own, for my taste, but it's up to you. While Bianca isn't the best draw, you can always try to make more room for Professor Oak's New Theory and Cheren, if you can. If you want to increase your Energy denial theme, consider Crushing Hammer and Lost Remover; however, take into consideration that tails makes the former latter, and that some decks have ways to recover discarded Energy cards.
 
-3 Rogga
-2 Boldore
-2 Gigalith
-1 Bianca
+2-1 Cinccino line
+3 Lost Remover
+2 PONT
?

Should be good enough, though I would go +2-2 Cinccino and +2 Lost Remover instead. Might be hard to get, but Junk Arm might be a possibility, to reuse Trainers and discard cards, to get better benefit out of your Bianca.
 
Sadly, I traded the one Junk arm I had a while ago, but I'll think about it. I'll test out 3 Remover, but If I don't like it, I can just go and pay half a dollar for another Cinni. I've got the precise amount of money needed to order the cards online, so I can test it IRL, considering how cheap it is.
 
I'm going to be testing at a league this weekend, and Hopefully I'm going to trade for Some Smeargles(Which I wish to test) over the Sawk.
 
So, your post in the other thread reminded me of this. How has the deck been working for you? Any changes you have planned with the advent of Noble Victories, such as the new Terrakion?
 
Due to half of the people laying donaphan (Worst matchup...) at my league, I think Landourous might be a very nice card to tech in. 2HKO when attacking first, and can accelerate energy on to itself.
I could play it over a bianca and a minni.
Also, I added another twins over a switch.
